Back to Wonderful Little Sister Resort
Although we discovered Door County, Wisconsin for the first time in the winter, we have now visited during the summer twice and it’s impossible to say which is our favorite season, although I have to admit that there is a substantial contrast between the two. One thing that hasn’t changed, however, is our love for … Continue reading

Pin ItGoing to the Dinosaurs with Jurassic Quest
Riding a Tyrannosaurus Rex is a good one to start the day. Especially for a dinosaur loving 9-year old.

When I heard that Jurassic Quest was coming to Lexington, … Continue reading

But first we would stay out way longer than anyone was actually interested, just long enough to get incredibly bored. I have had … Continue reading

Pin ItThe Ultimate Cabin Experience at Eagles Ridge Resort
Although I am the ultimate beach fan, Tom is a big fan of cabins so I try to compromise sometimes and find him a mountain cabin. This is a pretty easy proposition in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee where I think the cabins must outnumber the residents of this mountain town located near the entrance to the … Continue reading
Pin ItMaumee Bay State Park Lodge and Conference Center
I’m just going to be totally honest; our expectations for a state park lodge were pretty low. In our experience, they are nice but not anything spectacular. You all.
